I believe if you finish the PHP track it will cover the database side of it as well. Of course you will need a server to test it with, you can get free ones like XAMPP to test with. I believe that is all discussed in the PHP track though.

16,791 PointsWhen you refresh the page it will come back to the original code. That is just the way this example code works.
To have it store changes on the server you would either have to write to a file or save in a database. With saving in a database being the preferred method. And of course you would have to read the items from the database on the load of the web page. You would have to use a server language like php.
Those topics are discussed in other treehouse courses.
